Airport Parking & Hotels (APH) has recently announced that its airport parking plug-in, offering an extensive choice of UK airport parking options, is now available through Travelport’s point of sale solution, Travelport Smartpoint.

The latest application means that travel agencies can upsell airport parking when making flight bookings using a simple two-step process. The application automatically presents relevant parking content based on specific airport codes and is simple to use and free of charge to travel agents.

Other key features of the APH plug-in include the ability to pre-book airport parking and receive instant confirmation and service documents; access to parking availability and real-time quotes for individual flight departures booked; the capability to integrate PNR details into the back-office system; and flexibility in payment options in order to simplify and accelerate the payment process.

Phillip Morris-Simpson, new business development manager at APH, said: “By tapping into the APH Airport Parking plug-in through Travelport Smartpoint, travel agencies can boost revenue, save time and increase customer loyalty by offering a number of parking solutions to meet individual needs. The plug-in is simple and fast to use. We look forward to continuing our work with Travelport and further developing our relationship over the years ahead.”
